Sunday Edition: Navel Gazing For June 19, 2011
Hello everyone and welcome to Navel Gazing: your look back in the week in Punknews. I'm Bryne Yancey
and I'll be your guide through some of the juiciest, most popular and otherwise noteworthy stories from the last seven days. Remember, every Punknews story is built from tips from our wonderful, good-looking readers, so get to submitting. Here's what got the strange, slow and old community talking this week:
- Chaos ensued at an Against Me! show in Rochester, with Tom Gabel taking the venue to task for overcharging the fans in attendance
- Seth Putnam of long-running grindcore act Anal Cunt passed away at 43
- Fat Mike of NOFX offered his take on Bonnaroo
- Descendents, Kid Dynamite, The Weakerthans and more were announced for this year's FYF Fest
- Alkaline Trio debuted another re-imagined old song from Damnesia, "This Could Be Love"
- A film adaptation of Green Day's American Idiot is in the works, a title that seems to become more prescient as each day passes
With that, we hand over this Sunday evening to the Punknews community, where anything is possible, from the next amusing-then-overwrought meme, to the creation of bands and message boards, to alienating sports chatter. So talk amongst yourselves and we'll see you Monday morning.
